The Fermi function is historically derived from the Dirac equation or the Schr\"odinger equation. However, we claim that the Fermi function should be derived from quantum field theory. Then, we obtain the following results: (1) We give the…

We focus here on the work of the italian physicist Ettore Majorana, and more particularly on his 1937 article on the symmetrical theory of the electron and the positron, probably one of the most important theory for contemporary thought. We…
We explore spherically symmetric stationary solutions, generated by ``stars'' with regular interiors, in purely massive gravity. We reexamine the claim that the resummation of non-linear effects can cure, in a domain near the source, the…
In this paper, we prove that the Max-Morse Matching Problem is approximable, thus resolving an open problem posed by Joswig and Pfetsch. We describe two different approximation algorithms for the Max-Morse Matching Problem. For…
The Schwinger quantum correction to the classic Thomas-Fermi atom is directly derived by solving for the latter without recourse to a modeling after the harmonic oscillator potential and without solving for the particle density.
We show the existence of self-similar solutions for the Muskat equation. These solutions are parameterized by $0<s \ll 1$; they are exact corners of slope $s$ at $t=0$ and become smooth in $x$ for $t>0$.
